Skipping the login in PortalBuilder.

We are developing a portal using Portal Builder. This portal is going to be
in the Intranet only. We want to skip the login features, that is, we don't
want the login screen to be shown to the user. We want the users to get the
access to the pages without any validation(We are not looking for single
sign on). Can somebody suggest how to do this using Portal Builder.

If u use NTLM authentication then the user logon can be used to authenticate with PB.
You can also use cookie authentication and make the PC remember the user logon and password. This could be a security risk though.

You can achieve auto login with PB by using External Authentication.
This way you can use Netegrity, Entrust to send the remote variables to your
browser and let you inside the portal world automatically.
Behind the scenes, PB authenticates the REMOTE_USER variable sent by
SiteMnder / Entrust.

So here is the TO DO list:
Install the LDAP ( in my case i-Planet 4.16)
Install PB (pref latest version)(and RV)
install WebLogic or Netscape or TIBCO compliant webserver.
Install the WebAgent ( I used SiteMinder)
Configure the Policies on the SiteMinder Policy Server
Set up the REMOTE_USER variable as the Response in the Siteminder Policy
Server ( see the docs)
Delete the Security realm in WebLogic (see Weblogic / SiteMinder Docs)
Restart the webserver.
